As a node operator and as someone who has been a small-time sysadmin
for *something* with the Unix nature since 1996, I have to say that
the main reason I run my nodes on Linux is that I don't feel I know my
way around any modern *BSD enough to lock them down properly.  A
thorough guide to setting up -- and maintaining -- OpenBSD for a node
would help with that a great deal.
